Well, once you get off of the West Coast, the distribution of BSD users is fairly uniform throughout the country. I've seen concentrations in Texas, Denver/Boulder/Colorado Springs, Phoenix, New York, Atlanta, and Massachusetts. OpenBSD has (naturally) a bigger presence in Canada. Due to this far-flung constituency, I'm not sure how we'd select a physical location if the goal were to minimize the number of people who drove. Hmmmm.... Maybe the answer is not to have a physical location at all? I hear that someone once did a very successful "virtual" science fiction convention that lasted a whole weekend. Maybe we could do a "virtual BSDCon?" --Brett To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
